Peggy J. Kuehn, born on March 13, 1960, the daughter of Gordon and Marlys Pederson. She was a loving mother, grandmother, and friend who left this world on Thursday, October 23, 2025 at the Saint Cloud Hospital.

Peggy was united in marriage to the love of her life, Dave Kuehn on March 17, 1978, at Our Saviors Lutheran Church, in Belview, MN.

Peggy devoted much of her professional life to serving others. Her career included roles at Parkview Nursing Home, Sunwood Nursing Home, Zytec, and Artesyn, before spending 19 years at Walmart. Additionally, she volunteered at Centra Care Hospital until 2024, reflecting her commitment to her community and her compassionate nature.

She lived a life characterized by resilience and dedication, a true fighter who faced significant health challenges with determination and grace. For fifteen and a half years, she courageously managed life on dialysis, demonstrating tremendous strength, faith, and an unwavering spirit in the face of adversity.

She was known for her bright spirit and her love of life’s simple joys. Some of her happiest moments were spent shopping with her girls, spending time with her grandchildren, attending church at Gloria Dei Lutheran Church, enjoying twice weekly coffee visits at the local Golden Rule with her friends, and wandering the aisles of Walmart — where every trip turned into an adventure as she ran into countless friends and familiar faces. Her warmth, laughter, and ability to make everyone feel seen and loved made her a light in the community.

She will be deeply missed by her family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing her. Though her time with us has ended, the love, laughter, and strength she shared will live on forever in the hearts of those she touched.

Her legacy lives on through her four beloved children, Ron (Tasha) Kuehn of Lucan, Dillon (Jenn) Kuehn of Redwood Falls, Amber (Caleb) Krause of Redwood Falls, and Michelle (Curtis) Stellmacher of Wabasso. Peggy took immense joy in her role as a grandmother, leaving behind cherished memories with her grandchildren, Madisyn Kuehn, Carter Kuehn, Hunter Tisue, Jaxson Tisue, Brayden Kuehn, and Paisley Kuehn. She also adored her "grand pups," Khloe and Kooper, who brought additional light to her life.

Peggy is reunited in heaven with her soulmate, Dave Kuehn, and their son, Seth Kuehn. She is also reunited with her parents, Gordy and Marlys Pederson, in-laws, June Kuehn and Melvin Kuehn, her grandson Parker Tisue, and her sister, Deb Davis, along with her sister-in-law, Lori Williams. Peggy's life was marked by love, kindness, and resilience, leaving a lasting impact on all who knew her.

Peggy’s spirit will continue to inspire all who were fortunate enough to know her.

May she rest in peace.
